Formula One 2020

Although the season has yet to begin and we won't see the cars till next month when testing begins, I will start this thread off by wishing Lewis Hamilton a Happy 35th Birthday

This may be the year he wins his 7th WDC equalling Michael Schumacher. Who knows? He will certainly have Ferrari and the Red Bulls chasing him. Also with some luck and more power in the Honda engine, I am expecting McLaren to be in the mix as well....

Very much expected given the Chinese crisis.

The problem is, we have more races this season. If they can't manage to slot another one into the gap left by China, we have a month between Vietnam and Zandvoort.

That seems stupid when throughout the season we have 7 back to back races?!

[jonsie]

Yes it's going to leave a gap unless they can possibly reschedule one of the back to back races but you know better than me the preparation these countries make for a F1 race and they are geared up for a particular day in the racing calendar months in advance.

@MI5very good 😁

[Cleoriff]

Not only that @jonsie , people have been booking tickets, travel, flights and accommodation for months, since the dates were released.

[jonsie]

Yes there is that so it looks like we will have that gap unless they race round the streets of Oswaldtwistle 😂😂😂

They are looking for other street circuits @jonsie  although they seemed more interested in Miami.

Is that a joke? Who's the sponsor Rizla? Nesquik? ICBINB?

[Cleoriff]

Actually during the actual reveal they only showed the front. I have it on very good authority that they have a lot more sponsors @Anonymous 

Maybe just a poor picture but the only one available when I posted

If you look HERE  there are 8 pictures including this one ...
